Drai has so many tools and is so good that whenever he actually makes a mistake, it drives me nuts and I have this feeling he is having the worst game of his life
As a goal scorer, everyone has said pretty much what the situation is. Accurate, quick release, pushing the boundaries with impossible angles and blah blah.
It might have already been said (I didn't read the details of every reply...) but I wonder how many goals come from his insane ability to not get knocked off the puck. I compare him to Jagr in that way all the time. He is so hard to knock off the puck that, with defenders on him, he can work himself into positions to score, not through dipsy-doodle skill (which he has enough but not all-world levels), but simply by fighting off the defender. Along with that, the defender has to think "do I attack? or do i hang back?" because of his truly all-world passing. He is considered by the
players to be the best passer in the league. He was already last year but it took time for the players to realize it I guess
So not only do you have the best passer - a huge threat to a defender and the goaltender, you also have one of the hardest guys to knock off the puck, AND one of the most accurate shooters in the league. You can't get the puck from him, you can't block the pass because he will shoot, and you can't play the shot because he will pass. He is simply dangerous as soon as his stride his the hashmarks in his own end. Oh and that reminds me of his surprising speed. He never looks like he is going fast but still blows by defenders constantly.
